Rogan Josh Curry Pack Rafi’s Rogan Josh is our version of this popular Kashmir recipe. This is the perfect Curry Pack to put in the slow cooker for an easy, delicious meal. A rich, intense and velvety curry, mixed with tomatoes and spices, including black cardamom, cloves and cinnamon. This Kashmiri recipe is best cooked low and slow to enhance the deep, smoky flavours. Rogan Josh is often associated with a bright red colour. Traditionally this was obtained from a natural dye called Ratan Jot, which is the dried root of the Alkanet plant. This could be where the name Rogan Josh comes from. Other sources suggest the name could be from ‘roghan’ - red and ‘gosht’ - meat. Tomato puree is used in Rafi’s recipe in place of the rattan jot, providing richness, depth of flavour and colour. This kind of recipe would not usually be cooked with coconut. Yoghurt is more likely to be used to add a rich creaminess. Rafi’s addition of creamed coconut shows the influence of her South Indian heritage. Show more
